New Jersey S96 requires civilly committed sexually violent predators to be compensated at the same rate as State inmates for institutional work.
New Jersey S96 amends the law to require civilly committed sexually violent predators to be compensated at the same rate as State inmates for institutional work. Currently, these individuals are paid at the minimum wage. The bill would change this, aligning their compensation with that of State inmates, which is less than the minimum wage. This change is expected to save the State approximately $1.9 million annually, as recommended by the State Auditor.
